Private Property Tow in Riviera, TX.
Private Property Tow for Riviera drivers, done by licensed Coastal Bend operators. Managing a parking lot is harder than it looks.

Why is private property tow different in the Coastal & Outer Corridor?

What is private property tow like in Riviera, TX?
US-77 breaks down fast out here, and Kaufer-Hubert ramp is miles from the nearest tow yard.
Riviera sits on US-77 at the SH-285 junction, right where traffic splits: south into Kenedy County or west toward Falfurrias on that 33-mile ranch-road stretch. TxDOT is actively upgrading US-77 to interstate standards through here, which means construction zones, speed differentials, and the occasional truck caught off-guard by a lane shift. When something goes wrong on this corridor, the nearest tow capacity is Kingsville, about 15 miles north. Baffin Bay is the reason half the pickups on FM 772 are pulling boats. The Kaufer-Hubert Memorial Park has two concrete ramps and a 500-foot pier, and Loyola Beach draws wade fishers hunting the trophy speckled trout Baffin Bay is famous for. Out-of-town anglers from San Antonio, Houston, and the Valley make this run every weekend. A wheel-bearing failure on FM 772 with a 22-foot bay boat in tow means a flatbed call with no local option. The angler has to dial out and wait, and cell coverage on the ranch roads east of US-77 is thin. The Kleberg-Kenedy county line runs right along Los Olmos Creek, just south of the SH-285 junction. Cross that line heading south and you're in Kenedy County: no services, no tow yards, nothing. Riviera is genuinely the last stop before a long stretch of empty on US-77. If you're stranded here and you speak Spanish, we've got you. Kleberg County runs about 71% Hispanic, and a lot of the calls we get from this corridor come in en español.

Is private property towing legal in Texas?
Yes, when done right. The Texas Towing and Booting Act (Occupations Code Chapter 2308) requires a written agreement between property owner and tow company, state-compliant signage at every entry, specific notice and wait rules, and TDLR-regulated release procedures. The agreement is between the property and the licensed tow company, in writing.
Do HOAs use this?
Yes. HOAs are the most common private-property caller. The operator audits the existing signage, updates the parking rules with the board, and sets a patrol schedule that fits the community. Board members do not make the tow call - the tow company does, per the agreed rules. That keeps the board out of personal liability.
